CRI听力:Yemen Peace Talks Continue in Geneva

Talks among Yemen's warring parties have moved to a second day in Geneva.

Yemenis foreign minister Reyad Yassin Abdulla says he is not optimistic about the result of the peace talks with the Houthi militants.

"It is true I am not optimistic because their actions on the ground, from the destruction and killing of innocents, and especially in Aden and Taiz and the rest of Yemen's cities, and their actions and words here since they arrived in Geneva, do not demonstrate any good intentions on their part, nor any real desire to reach a real solution."

Meanwhile, a member of the Yemeni parliament, Abdel-Aziz Jubari, has condemned the Houthi rebels for destroying his house in Yemen, while he is attending the peace talk in Geneva.

"Today, while I am in Geneva and we came with open hearts and open minds in order to reach a solution, unfortunately, I was surprised to hear that they blew up my house last night. This is regrettable that people's manners and behaviors can reach this point."

The bombing came along with fresh air strikes by Saudi-led forces on military targets throughout Yemen.

United Nations officials are urging the Geneva talks to be settled with a humanitarian ceasefire, in order to enable international agencies to assist some 21 million Yemenis affected by the civil war.

The truce option is reportedly under discussion.

But the warring parties still haven't been able to reach a consensus on their clashing agendas.
